أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الحُسَيْنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ
صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْعَصْرَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ يَتَخَطَّى رِقَابَ النَّاسِ سَرِيعًا حَتَّى تَعَجَّبَ النَّاسُ لِسُرْعَتِهِ فَتَبِعَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِهِ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِهِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «إِنِّي ذَكَرَتُ وَأَنَا فِي الْعَصْرِ شَيْئًا مِنْ تِبْرٍ كَانَ عِنْدَنَا فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ يَبِيتَ عِنْدَنَا فَأَمَرْتُ بِقِسْمَتِهِ»

✧ I prayed Asr with the Prophet ﷺ in Madinah. Then he left, stepping quickly over people's necks, so fast that people were amazed at his speed. Some of his companions followed him, and he entered upon one of his wives, then came out and said, 'I remembered, while in Asr, some gold that we had, and I disliked that it should remain overnight with us, so I ordered it to be distributed.'
